Start with the borough
Lithium Marketing runs the website, local SEO, Google Ads and an AI receptionist for Fairbanks service businesses, with one team planning all four. The Fairbanks North Star Borough has 49 plumbing, heating and air-conditioning contractors, 47 residential remodelers and 31 excavation contractors, and a company that runs more than one of those trades needs a page and an ad group for each one.
Fairbanks has 31,468 residents, and the Fairbanks North Star Borough has 93,972 in total. The city is the largest in the interior region of Alaska, so the customers a business can serve reach past the city limits, and we plan the site, the service-area pages and the ad targeting for the whole borough.
The four services
Each card opens that service’s Fairbanks page, and the plan can start with any one of them.
Search in the borough
The plan starts where the searches are: “electrician fairbanks” draws about 110 searches a month, and “garage door repair fairbanks” about 70. A plumber, a roofer and an electrician are all found through the same kind of job search, so each trade you run needs a page and a profile that lists it.
“web design fairbanks” draws about 20 a month, so the plan cannot lean on people shopping for a designer. It follows the trades a business sells, and the site’s job is to turn what those trade pages earn into calls.

The local market
51.3% of Fairbanks homes were built before 1980, which is why a service page should explain repair and replacement work on existing houses, not only new construction. The page that names the work a customer can see in their own home answers the question they typed.
The metropolitan statistical area encompasses all of the Fairbanks North Star Borough, so an ad budget or a service-area page that stops at the city line cuts off the customers beyond it. The site should name the parts of the borough you cover, and the ads should target them.

Trades in the borough
The Fairbanks North Star Borough records 28 electrical contractors and 15 painting contractors, and a customer choosing among them reads the profile, the reviews and the service pages. That is where the difference has to show, and it is what the plan builds first.
The smaller trades are in the record too: 5 pest control companies, 3 glass and glazing contractors and 3 septic services in the borough. Each of those sells a narrow service, so the page has to name the exact job and the area it covers before the call.

The order of work
Tracking comes first, then the pages and ads that bring calls, while the AI receptionist answers from the day it goes live.
We put call and form tracking on the site, the Google Business Profile and any running ads, so the first month shows where the work comes from.
Service pages and borough area pages go up for the trades you run and the parts of the Interior you cover.
Google Ads starts on the Fairbanks trade terms worth the most to you, and the budget moves as the call data comes in.
The AI receptionist answers the calls those pages and ads produce, qualifies the caller and books the appointment; custom automation is scoped after a separate call.

FAQ
Still curious?
Call (503) 766-5964 or email [email protected].
Start with the gap that costs you the most work. If the site is slow or missing service pages, the website comes first; if customers cannot find you, SEO or Google Ads; if calls arrive after hours, the AI receptionist. A co-founder reviews the tracking and the site with you and says which one comes first.
One service can run on its own, and the others get added when the call data supports the spend. The tracking stays the same across all four, so a second service is measured the same way as the first.
The work runs on video calls and phone. Lithium is headquartered in Portland, with team members in Portland, Bend and Seattle, and we work with every client by video.
Calls, leads and cost per lead, broken out by channel and campaign. If you mark which calls became jobs, the report can follow a channel from the call to the work, and the next month’s budget follows that.
The first technical changes usually land inside 30 days; local rankings usually take 60 to 90 days to settle. Paid search can produce calls in the first week once tracking is in place, and the monthly report counts calls and leads from the start.
